Daniel S Smith, DC

Dr. Dan Smith is the best chiropractor who has ever treated me – and I have had several excellent ones in my years in Marin. His approach is both gentle and extremely effective.
Dr. Smith treated me for acute plantar fasciitis using a combination of adjustments, massage and rapid-​pulse technology, resulting in immediate relief. I could walk without pain again, which I had just about given up believing would ever be the case. Another condition he treated involved my painfully «frozen» neck — which was so stiff I could barely move my head. He combined therapeutic massage with electronic stimulation to the muscles and superb adjustments. The relief from pain and restored mobility were immediate. Even in Marin County where there are so many good chiropractors, Dr. Smith stands heads and shoulders above the rest. I always come out of his office feeling so much better. I love my appointments with him, and am grateful for his treatments that make it possible for me to move without pain again. He is simply extraordinary.

There are gentle chiropractors and then there is Dr. Daniel Smith who is in a class above. In the last 7 years, I was injured in two severe accidents: (1) auto accident and (2) at a business when a piece of furniture fell on me and knocked me down. I have seen doctors, physical therapists, massage therapists, and chiropractors. Each treatment brought some relief but the core issues – knee that did not straighten, ankle that always felt sprained, and severe sciatic pain – did not go away. I never knew when my knee or ankle might give out and I would fall to the ground. In addition, the concussion and dizziness from the auto accident did not go away completely. Would I need to depend on a cane for the rest of my life?
After my first visit with Dr. Smith, I noticed immediately that my balance had improved and that I felt lighter on my feet, more sure of myself. After 3 visits, the balance and ease of walking continued to improve. I opted for an eight-​week treatment plan and am very glad I did. To be honest, at times I was sore as heck after an appointment but I persisted, knowing that muscles and joints had to adapt to being back in the proper position. Today, my balance is true, my ankle rarely bothers me, and my knee is about 90% healed. Best of all, I am clear headed with no dizzy spells.
I will continue to go in once a month and let Dr. Smith complete his magic with my knee as it gets to 100%. Best of all, I don’t even know where my cane is. I don’t need it.

For all of you out there with a back problem and I know there’s a lot of you give Dr. Dan a try. I like, so many older men who think they can do younger man’s lifting have a reoccurring back problem which probably comes from the fact that I’m still farming at 73 years of age. I came to Dan with a very sore lower back and he took care of it. In the end that’s what matters. You hurt! Dr. Dan fixes it, can’t get better than that. On top of that, he’s a very nice guy with a very pleasant way about him. Give Dr. Dan a try, perhaps he can solve your back problem like he did mine.
Best regards Dan.

I thoroughly enjoyed my interaction with Dr. Dan! He was very confident and knowledgable and I will definitely be referring him to my friends and colleagues.

Dr Dan Smith is a wonderful chiropractor as well as a super genuine person. He truly cares about his patients with his sincere gentle approach.
I’ve worked directly with him for some time, and have been consistently impressed by his abilities.

I highly recommend Dr. Dan’s adjustments!
As a fellow chiropractor, I feel qualified to say that his adjustments are among the best I have received. He is my personal chiropractor, and I feel like I’m in great hands every time he works on me. Dr. Smith is a true healer, and you can’t go wrong with him as your chiro.
